While most of Lane Bryant Catalog remains matronly, two pieces in their new summer line did stand out. The dress on the left is a flattering print, and I love the dress shape – the purple piping at the very ages is a fabulous, stylish touch. I’m also enamored with this top, because it’s... »
I’ve actually read rave reviews of Love Your Peaches, but I’ve never done business with them myself. They are one of the few retailers that offers sizing beyond 32; they go up to 6x with one heck of a measurement range. These are not the more fitted and tailored styles that I personally prefer.... »
Yes, I do feel strange referring to myself in the third person. Here is the Geek Chic look at I wore at the Doctor Who Meetup yesterday. It isn’t perfect, and believe me, I can see where the fear of wearing pencil skirts comes from for women with bellies – shots of me sitting... »
I’ve seen a few other plus bloggers discuss it, but not necessarily together: it’s the dilemma of wearing prints, and the dilemma of wearing brights. I’d be stunned to see any of us who are making livelihoods of clothing consciousness wandering out in a bright print, just because we’re still working out what the... »
Unfortunately, standard wide-width boots don’t fit me, and the extra-wide over at Silhouettes didn’t work out for me either. So I’m hoping that these boots from Roaman’s might work out: I’m a little nervous because a customer did report a heel breaking on their website, and I’m pretty sure these aren’t as well made... »
If you’re one of those that goes for vintage/rockabillie/goth/punk variations, there’s a decent chance you’ve already encountered PinUpGirlClothing. If you shop for clothes, shoes, anything then do it with measuring tape in hand; vintage sizing has no similarity whatsoever to modernday clothing standards. The “gangster” shoes are hilariously wild. I find them personally amusing as... »
I love booties in general but they’ve now disappeared from US fashions before they ever came within my greedy little grasp. However, they’re hovering at Dorothy Perkins, and I am in lust with this patent leather wonder. I can even get past the peep-toe. (Disinclination towards peep toes is a strictly personal preference.) Share on... »
I was looking at some of the smaller/more specialized stores I’ve added to the blogroll and the search engine recently, and this pair of pink and white striped ballet flats from Soft Surroundings jumped out at me. I don’t really work stripes into any look of mine, but these just stood out as just... »
Fellow Daria fans might remember the episode “The Invitation” where Daria takes delight in tormenting her sister at one of those Nielsen-ratings-like popularity ranking parties. When Quinn ups her bribe to make Daria go away, Daria considers, “Well, I have been saving up to buy some snappy orthopedic shoes.” To be fair, Comfort Corner isn’t... »
Feet are political things, and by extension, when you vote with your feet, how you clad them is part of how you’re casting your ballot. They can work miracles on an outfit, causing every piece of the look to fall into line by elevating your body just so. They can also permanently damage your... »
